New Mexico Confusion
So, Indiana Jones and the Far Too Expensive Dad is to film in New Mexico. That makes, sense, right, because we're told that the film features a sequence in Area 51 which is, of course on New Mexico. But.. what's this? The preperation at the location is looking very un-Area 51 indeed.
People are now talking about New Mexico standing in for Morocco. Is this a clever bit of dual-usage for the area? Is the Area 51 business just a load of hokum? Or is it Morocco that is the smoke screen?

The aliens crashed in New Mexico, but were taken to Nevada. Allegedly.

Specifically, Hangar 13 on Wright-Patterson AFB.
Groom Lake wasn't established until decades later.
